National Suicide Prevention Week

Everyday people struggle with life and many end up feeling so alone that they want to give up. It’s important that those around you know how much you mean to them and to understand the warning signs that often accompany suicidal thoughts and actions.

This week is National Suicide Prevention Week, a national campaign to raise awareness and prevention of suicide across the country. Suicide is a serious epidemic, which claims the lives of almost 40,000 Americans a year. Researching the causes and educating people on how best to cope with suicidal thoughts are the best ways to help stop this epidemic.
